  • Patent number: 10774728
    Abstract: A fault diagnosis apparatus of a coolant circulation system for a vehicle includes: a water pump for circulating coolant; a controller for applying a revolutions per minute (RPM) command to the water pump; a water pump driver for operating the water pump depending on the applied RPM command; and a current sensor for sensing an current input to the water pump driver. The controller determines whether the input current sensed by the current sensor is within a predetermined normal range to determine whether the coolant circulation system is failed or not.

  • Patent number: 10756599
    Abstract: An oil circulation type motor may include an oil circulating device having cooling oil chambers which are formed along the circumference of a stator core and through which cooling oil pumped by an oil pump is introduced and discharged, wherein cooling oil is introduced into the cooling oil chambers, wets a stator coil wound around the stator core, and is then discharged from the cooling oil chambers.

  • Patent number: 10124797
    Abstract: A method for controlling a vehicle in the event of an oil-pump failure may include: a first comparison step of comparing, by a controller, an actual RPM of an EOP with a first set value set in advance based on a target RPM of the EOP; a maximum EOP driving step of driving the EOP to a maximum output by the controller when a result of the comparison in the first comparison step shows that the actual RPM is smaller than or equal to the first set value; a second comparison step of comparing the actual RPM of the EOP with a second set value by the controller after the maximum EOP driving step; and a creep driving step of making the vehicle perform creep driving using a motor by the controller when a result of the comparison in the second comparison step shows that the actual RPM is larger than the second set value.
